Working with the Arduino and the Raspberry Pi requires a good working knowledge of electronics, as well as programming.

While you can pick up some of this knowledge "as you go", you often end up with gaps and inconsistencies that get in the way of really enjoying Making.

This course will teach you the basic electronics skills you need when you work with the Arduino. It does this in a deliberate and systematic way. Everything you learn, you can apply immediately to your Arduino and Raspberry Pi projects.

Take this course to understand the basic electronics principles and components that are commonly used in making on platforms like the Arduino and the Raspberry Pi.

This is the perfect first project, where you will learn how to build an environment monitor gadget, connect it to the Internet, and build a dashboard that shows the readings from your sensor in your browser.

As you build this gadget, you will learn about the basics of creating circuits with the Arduino prototyping board, and programming it to communicate with an Internet of Things (IoT) platform.

Prepare to get messy with this classic Arduino project. Find an old remote control car set and convert it into an Arduino-powered one.

This project, is really fun to do, but also very educational. Learn how to transmit data wirelessly between two Arduinos, how to use LiPo batteries, and control motors. You will even learn how to use a Wii Nunchuck game controller as the remote control device for your car.
